The KHL has made it to the second round, and the Western Conference opens up their semifinals today. We begin in...
St. Petersburg, as SKA hosts Lokomotiv Yaroslavl. Curtis Sanford and Alexander Salak tend the twines. St. Petersburg was first to score in the first period on a Patrick Thoresen goal, coming off of Alexei Semenov and Roman Cervenka. This was the only goal in the game, as SKA won 1-0. The three stars were awarded to Salak (18 save shutout), Thoresen, and Sanford (31 for 32 in saves). SKA takes a 1-0 series lead.
The other game is in Prague, as Lev hosts Donbass Donetsk. Jan Laco and Petri Vehanen are set to start. Prague struck first in the first period on a Justin Azevedo goal, from Jiri Sekac. Lev added on in the second period with a Jakub Matai goal, fueled by Calle Ridderwall. Prague extended the lead as Jiri Novotny scored, thanks to David Ullstrom and Azevedo. Michael Leighton relieved Laco at this time. Lev padded the lead on a Petr Vrana goal, assisted by Marc-Andre Gragnani and Michal Repik. Prague kept going with a Patrik Zackrisson goal, coming off of Niko Kapanen and Repik. Donetsk got on the board in the third period with an unassisted goal by Viktor Zakharov. Donbass pulled closer on a Dmitry Kagarlitsky goal, assisted by Zakharov and Jan Kolar. This made it 5-2, the final, with Azevedo, Repik, and Zakharov being the three stars. Lev leads the series 1-0.
